Croatian proverbs[edit]
Thank you for your kind greeting and for correcting (formating and content) my first attempts at creating "Croatian proverbs". Two brief questions:
- you cleaned italic and bold formating from my original (copy from Coriscan). German, Italian and some others use italic and put proverbs in quotes. i find that this improves reading and looks better. Should I use some of other languages as "template" or should I stick with what you proposed ?
- what can I do for Croatian proverbs to be listed on the main page (http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Main_Page) together with other languages under "Proverbs" paragraph ?
Thanks, Ppale 00:13, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
- Sorry for removing italics — that was a mistake. I've restored italics now on all quotes. You can take a look at the latest version of Croatian proverbs if you want. Re: Main Page: I think that the list of proverbs on the main page is pretty static. However, I am working (slowly, since I have limited time) on a "Featured article" idea which will feature selected articles on the main page for a month, based on a vote. Once this is created, you'll be able to nominate Croatian proverbs for featured article. ~ MosheZadka (Talk) 05:46, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
- Hi. I moved the origin of the page to the talk page, where meta-data belongs. Thanks ~ MosheZadka (Talk) 12:16, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
- I am very new to Wiki so my question for today is: what is the proper (and cnonvenient way) to communicate with a user of Wiki? Both, if this is something interesting for general public and if it is private, just a conversation between me and the person? --Ppale 12:29, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
- You can leave messages on the user talk page (like you're doing), or you can use the "e-mail this user" link. I strongly suggest against the latter except in unusual circumstances — just go ahead and leave messages on talk pages! ~ MosheZadka (Talk) 12:32, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
